A Guest visiting Walt Disney World from South Dakota was arrested after getting drunk at a Resort hotel bar and slapping a female Disney security guard’s bottom.
According to his LinkedIn profile, Andrew Ticknor is an owner/operator of Jersey Mike’s Subs franchises. He was trespassed from Walt Disney World Resort and arrested for battery of a uniformed security guard.
Records Show Andrew Ticknor Got Drunk At Disney
According to an Orange County Sheriff’s arrest report, released months after the incident occurred in March per WDWNT, the Guest was visiting the Three Bridges Bar and Grill at Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort, located at Walt Disney World, where he reportedly had too much to drink.
Security had to get involved, which is when Ticknor slapped a female security guard’s bottom. The security guard, who was not identified in the arrest report, told authorities that the Jersey Mike’s Subs owner “open hand slapped her left buttock at one point”.”Initially, the security guard said she did not want to press charges as long as Ticknor trespassed from the property. However, she has since changed her mind.
The arrest report also noted that the security guard wore the proper uniform with security patches on both shoulders and had a significant security badge on the front of her shirt. It was apparent the female worked at Disney as a security guard.
Orange County Police Arrive On Scene
When Orange County Sheriff’s Deputy Justin Pickle arrived on the scene, he described seeing Ticknor “intoxicated and stumbling around near the restaurant’s entrance,” per the arrest report.
At first, Ticknor was not arrested; he was just trespassed by Disney, which prompted him to leave in an Uber with his father. However, he returned to Disney World property and went to his Resort hotel room at Disney’s Coronado Springs, which led to his arrest and a second trespass from Walt Disney World.
Ticknor was visiting Walt Disney World with wife and family.
The Jersey Mike’s Subs owner has since pleaded not guilty to the two first-degree misdemeanor charges, according to Orange Circuit Court records, and a trial date has been set for June 26.
